The Question of the Day
Nicolaus Schafhausen and Julia Moritz
Why isn’t there a Kunsthalle in bigger cities like London, Berlin or New York? Is it a myth to speak of internationality in relation to art? This pocket-sized soft-cover book provides answers to some of the 100 questions about the concept of the Kunsthalle asked over the last two years of artists, theorists, economists, architects and other experts regarding topics relevant to the international art world today. Published to coincide with a Kunsthalle – a temporary art exhibition – supported by local artists and collectors in Cologne, The Question of the Day examines various ways of understanding this new institutional exhibition model and how it might be implemented globally.

Solutions 9: The Great Pyramid
Ingo Niermann and Jens Thiel
The first publication in the Solution series of books that will present visionary projects in different countries goes to Germany. The Great Pyramid is the brainchild of writer Ingo Niermann, who envisioned using a derelict site in eastern German to build a democratic tomb for people from all ethnic, ethical, and religious backgrounds – which would function as a tourist attraction and spark an economic revitalization for the financially struggling region. Includes contributions by Rem Koolhaas, Christian Kracht, and Chus Martinez and projects by Atelier Bow-Wow (Tokyo), Fake/ Ai Weiwei (Beijing), Nikolaus Hirsch/Wolfgang Lorch/Markus Miessen (Frankfurt am Main), and MADA s.p.a.m. (Shanghai).
